3 INTRODUCTION For many organizations, security hardening means balancing performance with security tasks. At the same time, organizations have to make sure that the effort put into hardening security doesn t break another piece of the environment. Losing focus on security can lead to regulatory consequences or public relations nightmares. Rackspace Private Cloud 12.2 (RPC 12.2) introduces a number of securityhardening measures designed to address the complexities of securing private clouds with highly customizable, automated security controls to serve both the stringent compliance-driven requirements of enterprises and the performance demands of business-critical applications. SECURITY HARDENING CHALLENGES Applying security configurations to any system requires careful consideration of each change. While some changes reduce risk, they can cause performance or availability problems in a production environment. As an example, the Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) requires administrators to disable IPv6 networking and suspend hosts that can t write audit logs due to a full disk. Both changes have security benefits, but can be highly disruptive in certain environments. Reviewing the security merits of each change against the impacts to production requires security professionals and system administrators to combine their experience and expertise. Many compliance programs, such as PCI DSS, require companies to apply industry-accepted hardening standards to servers. This is not a one-time activity. Maintaining hardened systems over time requires careful attention to configuration changes and system alerts. This work often conflicts with the strategic, revenue generating activities of an organization. Is automated security the magic bullet? Automated security controls provide the scalable, repeatable security improvements that organizations need so they can focus on increasing revenue. Still, system administrators have several demands for security changes in production environments: They must reduce risk and thwart common attacks. Implementing the changes should be easy. Maintaining them over time should not be time-consuming. Production environments cannot be disrupted. Changes should be open, transparent and tested. The latest version of Rackspace Private Cloud takes security hardening to the next level with automated security controls that reduce risk without becoming a burden on system administrators. RACKSPACE PRIVATE CLOUD 12.2 SECURITY HARDENING OVERVIEW Rackspace Private Cloud 12.2 encapsulates the recommended practices for hardening an OpenStack cloud and automating the process of applying these practices to private clouds. The new, optional security hardening role in RPC 12.2 provides increased security for the host operating system and many common services running on the host. The controls are based on the widely accepted Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG) that the United States government uses to secure sensitive systems. All of the controls are automatically applied as part of the RPC deployment. The STIG covers a wide variety of security improvements throughout a Linux system. It includes controls for user authentication, service management and kernel tuning. These controls reduce the chances of a successful attack and also decrease the attacker s ability to move laterally if they are successful. System call auditing and file integrity monitoring provide actionable alerts for system administrators when suspicious activity occurs. Each control has been carefully reviewed to determine if it could cause a problem within an OpenStack cloud. Any controls that could disrupt a virtual machine or an OpenStack service have been adjusted or thoroughly documented as an exception. This ensures that you get all of the security benefits of each control without any impact to your cloud. 3 RACKSPACE PRIVATE CLOUD :: WHITE PAPER :: RACKSPACE PRIVATE CLOUD 12.2 SECURITY HARDENING
4 EXTERNAL NETWORKS PUBLIC NETWORK MANAGEMENT NETWORK Extensively documented: Each configuration is documented and referenced back to the specific STIG guideline addressed. The documentation also explains exceptions and configuration adjustments for auditors, and allows you to make educated decisions on which security configuration changes to apply.

The tasks won't take any action, however, because any action could cause authorized users to be unable to access the system. However, if any unlocked default system accounts are found, the playbook will fall with an error message until the user accounts are locked. Rabbit MQ Swift Proxy Deployers who intentionally want to skip this step should use: --skip-tags V to avoid a playbook failure on this check. Powered by OpenStack-Ansible OpenStack-Ansible, an open source project in the OpenStack ecosystem, is under the hood of every RPC deployment. One of the roles within the project, OpenStack-Ansible security, applies over 200 security configurations in just a few minutes. The automation within the role was built and reviewed by OpenStack developers from various companies, including Rackspace. RPC 12.2 SECURITY HARDENING BENEFITS Helps meet PCI DSS compliance requirements: The security configuration management tool helps you to meet PCI DSS 3.1 Requirement 2.2 that states: Develop configuration standards for all system components. Assure that these standards address all known security vulnerabilities and are consistent with industry-accepted system hardening standards. Auditor friendly: Audit mode can be used for testing or to validate compliance for auditing purposes. The setting lets you both demonstrate compliance and explain any exceptions. Deployers are urged to audit the accounts on their systems and lock any users that don't need to log in via consoles or via ssh. Easy to use: At launch, hundreds of security configuration settings are available to you. See the complete list here. All settings can be easily adjusted to align with your security needs with minimal disruption. Backed by experts: Run your workloads backed by a team of experts who manage the world s largest OpenStack-powered cloud. We were an integral part of setting the community standard for deploying OpenStack with Ansible and know best how to run and operate it. We also offer a comprehensive training curriculum and a suite of enablement services to help you become an expert too. 4 RACKSPACE PRIVATE CLOUD :: WHITE PAPER :: RACKSPACE PRIVATE CLOUD 12.2 SECURITY HARDENING
